This auction is for my 1973 Corvette. It still has the original 454 engine. I bought the car from the original owner a few years ago. He told me he bought it when he came home from Vietnam. I don't know enough about corvettes to know if it is a "survivor " but to me it is. It is unrestored. It came out of his barn. I had to replace the tank meter in order to get it running(it was clogged up). I did some of the normal/ typical things one does to a car that had been sitting such as,: replaced the brake calipers, brake master cylinder, exhaust system(original style), had a new front bumper cover installed, re-chromed the rear bumpers. I also had to do a little work to the front head lights as the were stuck open. I installed new springs and new vacuum relays and that took care of that.The license plate bezzle is new old stock. I had some work done to the tack drive distributor. Mr. Lars Grimsrud rebuild the carb. (he's one of the best) I had a friend of mine that is a professional mechanic do some of the bigger jobs. He installed a new clutch and flywheel ring gear. He also installed a new cam, lifters, bigger valve springs and pushrods, harmonic balancer,etc. Two years ago he was supposed to pull the engine and rebuild it and he still has not. This is why I am selling the car. The plan was to put a new rotating assembly in the engine. Including dome pistons to increase the horse power.( I believe the engine is ready to be overhauled so it made sense to me to do a custom build on the original engine, so the mechanic talks me into this and then is to busy to do the job ugh)) The car has been sitting for two years now. I did drive it around the block once last year, that was the last time it was even started. I really don't like seeing it sit and would like to pass it on to someone with the time and money to restore this car. It's a valuable car. Many experts say this year convertible big block is a great investment. See www corvetteblogger dot com/2011/06/03/c3-corvette-makes-hagertys-top-5-attainable-dream-cars The NADA value is very high on these cars. I insured it for much more than my asking price. I just am looking to get my money back so please do not email with low offers or trades. I did find some interesting facts once I bought the car,:Only 4,943 convertibles made in 1973. Only a handful of 454s. only 1,328 Auxiliary hard tops(the cloth top needs to be replaced) This was no biggy to me as it is kept in the garage. the 454 is referred to as LS4, only 3,704 4 spds in 1973, it has tilt-tele, map light, manual steering witch is rare, most had PS. I am selling this car as is, where is, with no warranty implied or expressed. All sales are final. I will not take the car back so please ask questions before you bid. I normally leave something out so feel free to ask questions before you bid. Another interesting thing is the numbers on the engine block indicate that it is California emissions, but the car car sold new in NJ., Buyer is responsible for the removal of the car, I will not relaes the car until it is paid for. Please plan on transporting the car with in a week or two of the sale unless other arrangements have been made. Thank you for looking.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.

Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady gives Chevy Colorado to Malcolm Butler [w/poll]

Tue, Feb 3 2015

Winning the Super Bowl, we'd imagine, is pretty sweet. Winning the MVP award at the Super Bowl, even more so – for many reasons, among them that you get a brand new Chevy Colorado, packed full of, you know... technology and stuff. Of course this year's Most Valuable Player was none other than Tom Brady, the New England Patriots quaterback who was crowned Super Bowl MVP for the third time and lead the Pats to win the Super Bowl for the fourth time. He makes tens of millions every season, and Mrs. Brady (a.k.a. Gisele Bundchen) probably makes an extraordinarily pretty penny herself. So what does one of the most successful and wealthy players in NFL history need with a new pickup truck? Not a whole lot, apparently: the Boston Business Journal reports that he gave the truck to Malcolm Butler, the rookie cornerback who intercepted Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson's pass on the Patriots' one-yard line with only twenty seconds to go and sealed the victory for New England. Which strikes us as a fitting gesture, even if Brady did keep the MVP trophy for himself.

2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV output jumps to 754 hp and 785 lb-ft

Sun, Oct 23 2022

A couple of days ago, GMC unleashed its 2024 Sierra EV Denali Edition 1 pickup, the luxury truck division's version of the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV. As has been the case between Chevy and GMC for decades, GMC designers worked to put ample visual difference between the two pickups that share the similar underpinnings. Unlike what's been the historical case, GMC announced output figures for the Sierra EV well above those for the Silverado. Preliminary estimates for the battery-electric Sierra with the dual-motor powertrain are 754 horsepower and 785 pound-feet of torque. Chevy revealed the 2024 Silverado EV in January with 664 hp and 785 lb-ft in RST trim. We're not sure what happened after the GMC debut, but the Bowtie has updated the Silverado's output to match the GMC with 754 hp and 785 lb-ft. Chevy truck communications spokesperson Sean Szymkowski submitted a statement to various outlets explaining, "As we prepare for production of the Silverado EV, our engineering team has further refined the estimated performance specs for the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV RST First Edition. GM now estimates horsepower to be up to 754 and torque up to an estimated 785 lb-ft when Wide Open Watts mode is engaged." It's possible Chevrolet did so in order to forestall backlash about the disparity, or it's possible the automaker already planned to do so after the GMC dropped. On the ICE side, buyers have got used to powertrain parity, the Silverado and Sierra offering the same engines with the same outputs even with pricing about $3,600 apart on the respective top trims. No matter how the decision was made, the benefits redound to Silverado EV buyers. By the way, the "Wide Open Watts" reference refers to the driving mode required to extract these peak power figures. In the GMC Sierra EV, this is called Max Power Mode. We're still looking for clarity on the output figures in everyday driving modes, we believe those will be the same 510 hp and 615 lb-ft that's the maximum in the lower trim Silverado EV Work Truck.Â Â With a year to wait before the Silverado RST EV reaches reservation holders, and with the Chevrolet Work Truck providing real-world feedback before the RST arrives, don't be surprised at more tweaks made to both the Silverado and Sierra EVs before they hit the market.
